# Anime-Themed Graphic Streetwear BAIT and Gundam Join Forces on a Special Streetwear Collaboration By Amy Duong | Published 2019-07-24 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bait-and-gundam References: [hypebeast](https://hypebeast.com/2019/7/bait-gundam-capsule-san-diego-comic-con-2019) & [instagram](https://www.instagram.com/baitme/?utm_source=ig_embed) To celebrate this year's San Diego Comic-Con, BAIT and Gundam join forces to design a series of streetwear staples with heavy graphics. The special capsule features a selection of short sleeve and long sleeve tops that are adorned in graphics. The prints highlight characters from the classic anime including XXX0-01, RX-0 Unicorn, and RX78-2. In addition to the character emblems are co-branded details nodding to both BAIT and Gundam Universe motifs. The launch is also accompanied by a mystery box that is filled with limited edition figurines. Each piece is marked with a unique serial number of up to 200. The streetwear pieces and figurines are available at the BAIT Comic-Con booth or the San Diego store location. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.1/10 - Popularity: 61% | Activity: 55% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Anime-themed Graphic Streetwear:** Opportunity for fashion brands to collaborate with popular anime franchises to create unique streetwear collections. - **Limited Edition Collectibles:** Opportunity to create exclusive figurines and merchandise for fans of anime and streetwear. - **Co-branded Collaborations:** Opportunity for brands to partner with popular anime franchises to create co-branded products that appeal to a niche market. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Fashion:** Fashion brands can tap into the growing demand for anime-themed streetwear by collaborating with anime franchises. - **Collectibles:** Companies specializing in limited edition collectibles can expand their offerings by producing exclusive figurines tailored for anime and streetwear enthusiasts. - **Marketing and Branding:** Agencies can help facilitate co-branded collaborations between fashion and anime brands, creating unique marketing opportunities and brand extensions. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Anime Headwear Capsule](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mobile-suit-gundam-1.md) - [Anime Merch-Inspired Apparel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/levis-4.md) - [Anime-Inspired Bold Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gundam-x-strictg.md) - [Anime-Inspired Streetwear Lineups](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/graniph-1.md) - [Animated Character-Themed Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/astro-boy-1.md) - [Mecha Anime-Inspired Cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gundam-1.md) - [Mecha Sci-Fi Smartphone Accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/casetify-gundam-collection.md) - [Anime Robot-Inspired Clogs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rx782.md) - [Anime-Inspired Streetwear Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/youngla.md)
